Bacteria can metabolize via fermentation. Some bacteria also metabolize via photosynthesis using the sun and inorganic materials, these are known as lithotrophs or autotrophs.

What cannot metabolize nutrients?
An animal cannot metabolize nutrients.
Can the fetus metabolize glucose without oxygen?
First of all, the human fetus does have oxygen. The oxygen is obtained from the mother's blood via the placenta. But if the fetus did not have oxygen temporarily, s/he could still metabolize glucose. This would be done the same way that other humans metabolize glucose without oxygen--by converting it to lactic acid.
Why is cyanide an effective poison?
Cyanide blocks your ability to metabolize oxygen inside your cells.
How long does it take for THC to metabolize out of your body?
It takes on average 30 to 60 days to metabolize THC from bodily physiology. It takes 6 months however to get beyond detectable levels in hair however, despite how much or how often a person uses.
What is the uncertainty of the position of the bacterium?

How do Pathogenic bacterium metabolize its host?
The bacterium secretes enzymes that break down organic structures.
Who can metabolize lactose?
types of bacterium.
Does the bacteria tetanus need a host to survive?
No. The bacterium Clostridium tetani forms an endospore and can survive for long periods of time. When the endospore is introduced into a favorable environment it begins to metabolize.
Is a host a living thing as in cells?
Yes, the host is living, whether it be a host for a virus, a worm, or a bacterium.
A bacterium that can enter the structure of a host cell is called?
intracellular.
The lac operon enables a bacterium to build the proteins needed for lactose metabolism only when what is presented?
Only when lactose is present; if glucose is present the cell will metabolize glucose over lactose due to glucose being easier for the cell to metabolize.
Where in a host cell does hidden virus hide while it is inactive?
bacterium
What is a disease producing agent especially a virus or bacterium called?
A micro-organism, such as a bacterium, a virus or a fungus, that invades a host and causes a disease is called a pathogen.
What is an organism that may limit the growth rate of an organism?
Pathogens such as a bacterium or a virus can influence the growth rate of the host organism. Virus (not really an organism) can infect a bacterium and integrate their genetic material. This changes the homeostasis of the bacteria, because viral proteins would be start producing by the host. hence the host can not grow as a normal organism after infection.
Parasytic bacteria depend on eukaryotic host cells of what?
There are many forms of parasitic bacteria. The parasitic bacterium that depends on eukaryotic host cells are of the Rickettsia family.
How long do viruses to reproduce?
When its host cell makes more copies of the virus
Who discovered the bacterium that causes anthrax disease?
Bacillus anthracis, also known as the Anthrax bacteria.
